Abstract

The arching effect of the active earth pressure acting on an excavation wall subjected to close excavation reduces lateral earth pressure acting on excavation wall. In this paper, the arching effect was estimated for varying width to excavation depth ratio and wall friction angle by analytical and numerical methods verified with centrifuge test results. The arching effect is significant when the width to excavation depth ratio and wall friction angle is decreased and increased, respectively. The analytical solution derived from the classical arching theory suggested by Handy(1985) shows good agreement with the numerical solution than the other solutions.

기존건물의 지하층과 인접하여 굴착 시 양단벽체 토사의 마찰로 발생하는 아칭효과는 굴착벽체에 작용하는 토압을 경감시키게 된다. 본 논문에서는 굴착깊이에 대한 배면폭의 비와 벽마찰각의 변화에 따른 아칭효과의 변화를 다양한 조건에서 수치해석을 통하여 살펴보았다. 수치해석 모델은 원심모형시험결과를 바탕으로 검증하여 적용하였으며, 아칭에 의한 토압경감 효과는 굴착깊이에 대한 배면폭의 비가 작고 벽마찰각이 커짐에 따라 증가함을 알 수 있었다. 이와 같은 아칭 현상은 기존의 아칭이론 중 Handy(1985)가 제안한 이론식을 통하여 가장 정확히 묘사 가능함을 알 수 있었다.
